During his recent visitation of the Assumptionist communities in the U.S., Fr. Benoit, A.A., Superior General of the congregation met with the members of the Lay/Religious Alliance at the Assumptionist Center in Brighton and St. Anne & St. Patrick's Parish in Sturbridge.

In each location the gathering began with Evening Prayer, followed by dinner with the local community.

Later each group shared their experiences as members of the Alliance, as they continue to grow in prayer, knowledge and understanding of Fr.d'Alzon's spirituality and what it means to be part of the Assumption family. In response, Fr. Benoit expressed his gratitude and support of our Alliance efforts here in the U.S. and his desire for its continued growth throughout the congregation. He further pointed out that this lay membership in the congregation was an important desire and prayer of Fr. d'Alzon in furthering the growth of God's kingdom.
